跃入公开市场。在Adega da Quinta da Faísca的重组完成后，对游客住宿的需求变得明显。所有的庄园都已经被占用。几乎全部。由葡萄树、现有的房屋和酒厂本身组成。此外，还有橄榄树和杏仁树。剩下的是几乎不可能种植葡萄的区域，然后是几乎无尽的风景。

A Leap into the Open. After the re-structuring of the Adega da Quinta da Faísca was complete, the need for visitor accommodation became apparent. All of the estates were already occupied. Almost entirely. By the vines, the existing houses, and the winery itself. Also, by olive and almond trees. That left the areas where it was, almost impossible to grow vines and then, the nearly endless view.

这种景色必须被带入新的住所。完全的。或者至少是尽可能多的。一块混凝土板，与地面相连，然后由金属梁支撑，形成了阳台，上面建起了四个小公寓。我们悬浮在景观中，它已经进来了，并把我们带到了外面。几乎是一个飞跃。

That view had to be brought into the new accommodation. Completely. Or at least, as much as possible. A concrete slab, connected to the ground and then supported by metal beams, created the veranda, above which, four small apartments were erected. We are suspended in the landscape, which has come in and has taken us out into the open. Almost a leap.

一切都是木材：与天花板相融合的墙体结构，窗户，外部覆层。屋顶和锌制防水板。精致的金属制品。

Everything in timber: wall structures that blend with ceilings, the windows, the external cladding. Roof and flashings in zinc. Exquisite metalwork.

所有这些都是精心建造的，具有很强的专业性。 一个严格的要求和理解。四个公寓可以相互连接，以创造不同的配置和组织；占用和使用的多功能性。在浴室和小厨房上方，一个夹层在客厅上方打开，并向外延伸。

All were built with care and great professionalism. A rigor demanded and understood. The four apartments can interconnect, to create different configurations and organization; versatility in occupation and use. Above the Bathroom and Kitchenette, a Mezzanine opens over the Living Room and out to the open.

外面的小路是由水洗混凝土制成的，花园是由石板和本地树木组成的。干燥，非常干燥，是这个Alto Douro葡萄酒地区。

Outside, the pathways are made of washed concrete, and the garden is of slate and native trees. Dry, very dry, is this Alto Douro wine region.

一个水箱，客人可以在那里降温，重新使用古老而美丽的花岗岩石头。四个小海滩，让你享受户外活动。在东边，在一个俯瞰风景的露台上，在葡萄树的庇护下，十米长的木桌是一个可以闲逛和接受这一切的地方。

A water tank, where guests can cool down, re- uses old, beautiful granite stones. Four small beaches, let you enjoy the outdoors. To the East, on a terrace overlooking the landscape, the ten-meter-long wooden table under the shelter of a vine is somewhere to hang out and take it all in.

所有这些空虚都让我们感到充实。好酒和起伏的风景提醒我们，杜罗河就在下面流淌，它是这次跃进的原因。

All that emptiness fills us up. The good wine and the rolling of the landscape remind us, that the River Douro is flowing just down below and that it is the cause of this Leap into the Open.

在这样一个美丽的地方做建筑并不难。它已经在那里了。
你只需要跃进。

It’s not difficult to make architecture in such a beautiful place. It is already there.
You just need to Leap.
